Research Interests

I am mainly interested in extending and applying the experimental method to several problems in economics. Among other fields, I applied it in:

  • incentives to innovate under different Intellectual Property regimes, copyleft, open source ;
  • risk elicitation methods, their properties and the development of better ones
  • behavioral industrial organization – consumer behavior in spuriously complex markets, and firms reactions
  • framing effects on (common knowledge of) rationality in sequential games
  • social choice under the veal of uncertainty
  • motives of punishment in public good games

In Grenoble I apply the experimental method to food consumption choices.
